Curiousity - Bathroom Fans
"Donwill" popple @diddle .dot wrote in message news:... "the_constructor" wrote in message ... Just out of curiosity, are 12V timer fans noisier than 240V fans....? I got a 12V fan and my neighbour nearly jumps out of her skin when it is switched on. I installed it correctly a few months ago but after a week I disconnected it. It must be bad though because I can hear it downstairs through 3 closed doors. The fan is from Screwfix.... James I have a screwfix ceiling mounted bathroom fan that plugs into a 4ins duct which extracts through the pine end of the bungalow. In order to reduce the awful noise it generates, I have been looking for an externally mounted fan which would, I believe reduce the noise level. I have failed to find a fan in the UK but have found an American one which would do the business if I could find an European or better still a British agent which could supply a 240V model. I have a link to the Fan as follows: http://www.continentalfan.com/ext.htm |

Fitting a fan in a sealed room just does next to nothing. |

Fitting a fan in a sealed room just does next to nothing. Its generally allowed for with a 'leaky door' or a grille in the door or internal wall..if its well sealed. |
